Weaving
DEFINITION
Textile weaving is the process of
interlacing two types of yarn known
as warp (vertical thread) or ends and
weft (horizontal thread) or filling yarn
at right angles to create a textile.

Textile weaving, Ilocos community


How It’s Made
Three
Necessary
Operations
3 operations which are often called primary motions.
These three processes must be synchronized, the order
cannot be interchanged.
How it is made
1. Shedding: separating the warp
yarn into two layers by lifting and
lowering the harness to form an
open area between two sets of
warps and known as shed.
2. Picking (also known as filling):
Process of inserting the filling yarn through
the shed by the means of the shuttle's while
the shed is opening. In other words, it is
passing the weft yarn across the warp
threads through the shed.

3. Beating:
Process of pushing the filling yarn back into
the woven fabric at a point known as the fell
and done by the reed.
How it is made
2 extra steps:
1. Warp control (let-off): warp yarns are
unwound from the warp beam during the
three processes
2. Take up: woven fabric is wound on the
cloth beam during the three processes

Printmaking
Printmaking
● Printmaking is a process that
uses a variety of methods to
transfer ink, colors, designs,
patterns, or even text from one
surface to another, usually paper.

● The print was responsive to the


demands of artistic expression
and the urgencies of its social
and cultural milieu.
Types of printmaking
Relief print- created by printing a
surface of an object by inking the
surface and impressing on paper

Manuel Rodriguez Sr.
Types of printmaking
Linoleum or Rubbercut - carving out
certain areas of the drawing in a
linoleum or rubber sheet, inking
uncarved areas with a roller or cloth
stamp, and pressing paper on top of
the sheet to get the print of the
embossed or raised areas
Types of printmaking
Woodblock printing - creating
an image that uses wooden
blocks where the lines and
textures are carved out of
wood
Types of printmaking
● Intaglio - process which images
are printed from a plate that
hold ink in recessed areas

○ Aquatint - acid resistant


powder used to coat the
plate
○ Engraving - incised to the
plate

Sr.
Types of Intaglio
● Etching - plate is covered in
acid resistant coating and
the design scratched into
this

● Mezzotint - whole plate is


roughened to hold ink which
creates a dark background

How printmaking is made
● There is no specific procedure for how
printmaking is made, as it depends on
the type of print being made.

● Generally, an original print is an image


on paper or similar material made by
one or more of the processes described
here. Each medium has a special,
identifiable quality. Prints can be
classified according to the type of
surface used to make them.
